Luminary bags and candles are pre-sold for this event to be placed along the trail and will be lit in reverence of each person who has battled cancer. We will have the bags made ahead of time to be placed along the trail as you arrive for the event. Each bag purchased will represent only one individual not multiple names on one bag.
